Lock in the hubs this is steep, you've mistaken me for someone who cares, never pass up the first day what you'd shoot on the last. Ohh looky there I got me a rat!

"Management buck" I understand that one might have a management plan for their land but don't say it in a way to justify the "small" size of the buck. Just be happy to harvest an animal.

Yes! This phrase gets used waayy to much.

That's a "big cawd daddy". I hear this from some guys hunting whitetails. Not even sure I spelled it right, but what the heck is a cawd daddy?

Another one that just drives me nuts, "I seen this or I seen that".

"you can't shoot the big ones, if you're shooting the little ones"

"That boy's a bruiser" Remember that. It's going to be the new catch phrase. You heard it first here. Randy, our version of Funky Cold Medina isn't going to even raise an eyebrow after they edit your rendition of Scapegoat Nanny into the episode.

I'm a northern boy from muley country but I've heard of Crawdads, which are like little freshwater lobsters that they catch and eat down south. We use them for bait up in Colorado. The way a crawfish looks with it's claws hooking around front does kind of resemble the way giant whitetail antlers hook around front. Maybe . . .

I'm just guessing they might be saying "big crawdaddy", as in crawdad.

These are all excellent, gotta say i've had a few chuckles. One that gets me from Mr. Newberg in one of the early OYOA episodes goes something like this..."Ooo that's a really nice buck...UFF-DA!"

Bummed I don't get any hunting shows at my house. When I have seen some in the past, the ones that bothered me the most were the obnoxious celebrations. High fives, jumping up and down, etc... True excitement doesn't mean you have to be 10 again.
